Donnagio’s Pizzeria

Great, friendly staff… Delicious food…

Great pizzeria. Probably the best in Saddle Brook. Ive had many things on the menu and only complaint i have is the prices. Little expensive. The cheese ravioli is amazing. 4 stars ****

Had a personal pizza from them and is wasn’t good at all. The salad there was ok. In the beginning I did like to dine here but as the years went on the food went downhill. Staff is friendly.

I stopped here for a quick dinner after work one day back in late May and the pizza is okay overall; it’s not the tastiest pizza I’ve ever had, but it’s definitely not the worst. It’s definitely very filling, so stop in if you’re in the mood for a quick bite, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to come here.

We order from Donnagio’s everytime a carb overload craving hits us at work and they rarely disappoint. You can order slices of specialty pies for delivery as well which is perfection. They also recently started making personal pizzas and its questionably the best pizza I have ever tried and some good options rather than the basic kinds of za. The only time I had a bad experience was when we ordered a few Buffalo Chicken slices and they arrived looking like crusty pieces of chicken were added as an afternote on top of a precooked slice. Their cheese steaks are awesome too with actual pieces of super tender sliced steak as opposed to the usual thin layer of meat on cheese steaks. In a world full of a million pizzerias (especially in the NJ/​NY area) Donnagio’s is on top of my list for sure.

I’ve been going here for years. Always quality food. Largest calzones you ever saw. Chris is the greatest.

pretty good spot for your quick pizza fix. nicer décor/​interior than other pizzerias in the neighborhood. located in a shopping complex. i went here while waiting for firestone to change my car oil next door. mostly deliveries and takeouts. $ 6.99 for 2 slice and a large fountain drink

Food is delicious… I love their fried calamari!!! Their tomato sauce is delicious & it’s BYOB, too.

The pizza isn’t worth the price. Like many others have said, the slices are overpriced, and I agree.
The workers seemed kind of annoyed to be there and had what I thought to be a rude sign telling people not to use their phones at the counter.

Excellent place. Restaurant style meals. Owners are very friendly and welcoming to their guests.

Must have changed either owner or cook. Pizza is horrible now! Subs are not good either

Went here for years until now. Pizzas not like it used to be. All toppings in the middle on one pizza and the other we payed for roasted garlic topping witch was almost non existent and they didnt cut the pizza right lol. It was 4 slices. On to the next pizza place. Its not like we don’t have a lot of options.

The food is decent, some items better than others, but they are way over priced. I was ok paying what I felt was extra when I assumed it was expensive because of the food quality, but I recently bought a can of soda with my meal (I don’t drink soda… Had a weird craving) and they charged $ 2 and change for a can when it’s $ 1 maximum anywhere else, it made me feel like they just have a higher mark up

I’ve been here a few times for takeout, and each time it has been lackluster. This is the last time.
Their pizza is very thick, doughy and oily. If that’s you’re type of taste for pizza, then ok. Personally, I like a thin slice that is crisped nicely and not oily.
It is more expensive, but their menu states they use local ingredients, etc. Honestly, it was probably frozen. Their sub was tasteless. I’m sure the constant menu blasts and coupons are an indication of slow business.
I hate to write a review like this because they are friendly.
…go to Brother’s pizza in the area it’s so much better.

I tried a chicken parm and a slice one night to see what all the hype was about after seeing constant menus at my doorstep and local ad’s.
Chicken parm was stuffed and pretty good, nothing too crazy, good flavor for a typical Italian sandwich from a pizza spot. The slice I tried was just ok, I’d probably opt to hit another pizza spot in the area.
Definitely overrated/​overpriced, you can get just as much for a lot cheaper across the st at mr brunos who’s been there forever IMO and I don’t even prefer them really but financially and locally I would if I didn’t more options nearby.
I will give them credit to having some unique menu items though but nothing too crazy just different.

This place has delicious food but way overpriced. The sicilian is very good but a slice costs like $ 4. I would rate them higher if their prices were reasonable. But if you are willing to spend all the cash you have in your wallet then definitely go here. And they get you with the subs since they only sell small/​regular ones during lunch.
I have eaten different items and have never been disappointed. Garlic knots/​sticks are highly recommended.

tried them out for the first time tonight after trying across the board the saddle brook, NJ offerings of Pizza & Italian food. This food is very good, i ordered delivery they quoted 45 mins on a busy saturday night primetime and got here in 30 mins. Michelangelo from TMNT approved. I ordered a white pie with tomato and garlic a college staple from my past, as well as Eggplant Parm, which came with some grated parmesean cheese in a ramekin (an appreciated first) and a quarter of hot crusty flaky REAL round bread, not that delivery roll stuff, but real bread for real dipping. Pizza and Parm were both equally good, I like their red sauce too. Pasta cooked perfectly. The white pie was generously adorned with both good cheeses not too much garlic and tomatoes used were tasty. I will try calamari and a sub and salad next time.
in the past 2 year Donnagio’s has gone completely downhill. inedible, gross old oil tastes. soggy pizza, undercooked calimari even moreso if you OFFEND the «chef» by asking for well done pizza its basically not even cooked when it arrives. they no longer give anything complimentary like bread and parm cheese, while at the same time their prices have gone up. delivery drivers are clueless, and dont even have GPS in this day and age to deliver to a regular.

The wife and I found this place on
and decided to give it a try based on the reviews I found there.
The first thing I will say is that while it is a pizzeria/​restaurant the restaurant dining room is completely separate from the pizzeria portion which gives it a nice feel.
We arrived at around 7:20 this evening (Saturday) and were seated within a couple of minutes. Just had to wait for the staff to clear and set a couple of recently vacated tables.
We started off with our beverage and appy order. A coffee for the Mrs and a Pepsi for me. and we decided on the Chicken Fingers appy.
The beverages were served quickly at which time we put in out entrée orders, the Cavatelli Arrabiatta off the specials menu for the wife and the Veal Parm with Angel-​hair for me along with a side of meatballs.
Things started down hill from there. As we watched the folks who were direct behind us on entering being served their entrees, our appy of simple chicken fingers was still nowhere to be seen.
Some minutes later our server brought out the Chicken Fingers and when asked, apologized for the delay.
Sometime later, again after watching yet another table of people who arrived and were seated well after us receive their entrees, we were still looking at an empty table.
When our entrees finally started to arrive, they did so piecemeal. First my wife’s Cavatelli Arrabiatta arrives, But that was all that arrived. She was about a third done by the time my Veal arrived. And when I say veal, that’s what I mean. I got a plate with 2 pieces of veal on it. No pasta. About 5 minutes later when the server’s assistant comes over and asks how everything is, I say I don’t know as I STILL don’t have the pasta for my meal. A few minutes after that the owner (I think) shows up with the pasta and my meatball.
I think the issue here was more one of a problem in the kitchen than with the wait staff. Clearly there were issue of prep management and knowing how to have meals for a table ready to good at the same time.
As for the food itself. it was fine. The Chicken Fingers were actually quite good and my wife enjoyed the Cavatelli Arrabiatta. My veal was OK. Not the best I have ever had but hardly the worst. And it was actually veal, not that veal-​like substance that some places try to pawn off on their customers. Unfortunately, it was mostly cold by the time I got to eating it after waiting for the pasta The pasta itself was pretty good, cooked perfectly.
And finally the Meatball. Now I will preface this by explaining that the Meatball Side dish is listed twice on the menu. It is listed first with the other separately available sides for $ 4.95 and again under the «Baked Dish» section where it advises that a Meatball or Sausage Side can be had for $ 2.50 with one of the baked dishes, of which the Veal Parm was one. So I ordered the Add-​on to sample the meatballs. What I got was a (1) meatball, cut in half and placed on top of the pasta. The meatball itself was OK although I thought it could stand a bit more seasoning, and it was of a decent size, still, $ 2.50 a meatball seems a bit excessive to me.
The bottom lines here are this. The wait staff were friendly and attentive. The place was clean and well lit. The portion sizes for everything except the meatball we quite large. In fact half of both meals were wrapped up to take home.
The food was «OK» and I probably would have given the place 3 stars if it weren’t for the terrible timing of the food service.
I am up in the air about returning. If we do, it will likely not be on a weekend night. We may go back and see how their kitchen handles things on a slower, week night. But at this point, I just do not know.

One of my favorite Italian restaurants in the area. Very decent portions and food is always fresh. A few more dollars than some other local places but you’re basically paying for fresher ingredients. Also, the homemade bread they give you is amazing.
Pizza is decent, but it’s the fresh pasta dishes and sandwiches which are amazing.

Not bad… best pizza I’ve found in my delivery area. Their delivery is timely and courteous as well.
Donnagio’s is not a place I’d go out of my way for, but it’s a reliable 3 stars for an easy dinner.
